Abstract
Colonies and single cells of Microcystis aeruginosa and the hepatotoxin microcystin were retained by salad lettuce after growth with spray irrigation water containing the microcystin-producing cyanobacteria. These findings are discussed in terms of crop spray irrigation with water containing cyanobacteria and potential human exposure to cyanobacterial toxins via plant foods grown in such circumstances.Entities:
